NFL teams were informed of fifth-year option amounts for players selected in the 1st-round of the 2020 Draft.

Joe Burrow: $29,504,000
Chase Young: $17,452,000
Jordan Love: $20,272,000
CeeDee Lamb: $17,991,000

Decisions must be made by May 1.
There is zero percent chance that fifth year option is going to come into play with Burrow.

I'm really interested to see what Green Bay decides with Jordan Love. It will go a long way into deciding what they think about him as a replacement for Rodgers.

Albert Breer @AlbertBreer
Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan was told he’s been eliminated from the Colts search, per source.
@MikeSilver reported (and I’ve confirmed) Giants DC Wink Martindale was told the same.

Callahan also was up for the Cardinals job, is clearly a name to watch for 2024.

It would be nice to keep our coaching staff one more year, I'm curious if the Cardinals will go with a DC or an OC, since OC has been the trend as of late. Hoping they do go with an OC, and this coaching staff and prove again why they deserve to be talked about for these coach of the year awards. Very disappointed Zach Taylor didn't receive a single vote for COTY. 12-4 with one of the hardest schedules and a 10 win streak. He should have at the very least received 1 vote.

Yeah no shit. And Burrow didn't get 1 single vote cod MVP. If both were in a bigger city bet your dam ass they would have. Same with all this HoF crap. Riley gets in after he dead. I guess they gonna wait 35 more years to put Willie in too. Crazy.
I was crazy back when being crazy really meant something.

Once again I have to wonder how much of the lack of respect our players and coaches receive is due to how unpopular an owner SoP is? It shouldn't enter in to it but human nature being what it is I wouldn't be surprised if it did at least to some extent.

Riley and Ken Anderson being excluded from the HOF is inexcusable. If Riley has played for almost any other team he would have been voted in decades ago. Anderson too, should have been included long ago. Several Chargers players from that era made it already and San Diego isn't much bigger than Cincinnati so being a small market team can't be the only reason.

Hoist chip onto shoulder, re-sign everyone, destroy all comers next year. This is bullshit.

Paul Dehner Jr. @pauldehnerjr
Can confirm the #Bengals are getting the band back together on the offensive staff.

HC Zac Taylor, OC Brian Callahan and QB coach Dan Pitcher will all return to keep continuity around Joe Burrow and the passing game after exploring other opportunities.

Sounds like Lou many not be heading to Arizona. That's another good sign hopefully.
